Adaptive Communication Interfaces for Human-Robot Collaboration
Robots can use a collection of auditory, visual, or haptic interfaces to convey information to human collaborators. The way these interfaces select signals typically depends on the task that the human is trying to complete: for instance, a haptic wristband may vibrate when the human is moving …

Domain-Independent Mode Estimation for Human-Robot Collaboration
… safely and intelligently with humans, robots must infer high-level semantic sates, such as intentions or interaction modes, from uncertain sensor input. While dynamic, probabilistic mode estimation is commonly used in fault diagnosis, this thesis extends the problem to activity …

Communication-Driven Robot Learning for Human-Robot Collaboration
The growing presence of modern learning robots necessitates a fundamental shift in design, as these robots must learn skills from human inputs. Two main components close the loop in a human-robot interaction: learning and communication. Learning derives robot behaviors from human inputs, and …
